Carbon Donut: Sparking Everyday Climate Action

Client

Spark Sustainability is on a mission to empower individuals and organizations to make smarter, climate-conscious choices. Through their product Carbon Donut, they aim to simplify climate action by making carbon tracking personal, tangible, and (dare we say?) enjoyable.

Challenge

How do you turn something as abstract as carbon emissions into an engaging, easy-to-use experience? Spark Sustainability needed a platform that could:

• Educate users on their personal climate impact.

• Recommend meaningful, science-backed actions.

• Feel fun and empowering - not preachy or overwhelming.

• Scale across both B2C and workplace audiences.

All while staying true to their mission: climate action without guilt-tripping.

What we built

Looming Tech partnered with Spark Sustainability to bring Carbon Donut to life - a mobile app that helps users understand and reduce their carbon footprint in daily life.

Our team delivered:

• A clean, responsive React Native app.

• Seamless integration with Strapi CMS to easily manage content and updates.

• Smart backend architecture for tracking and visualizing personal impact.

• A Slack integration to extend climate insights into users’ work lives.

We made climate data feel actionable, not abstract, by turning emissions stats into real-world steps users can take.

Tech Stack

To bring Carbon Donut’s vision to life, we used a flexible, scalable tech stack that supported fast iteration, clean UX, and seamless content management, all while keeping performance and maintainability top of mind:

• React Native

• Redux

• TypeScript

• Node.js

• Strapi CMS

• AWS

• Slack Integration

Outcome and impact

• A fully functional mobile app that educates, inspires, and empowers.

• Usable across personal and workplace environments.

• Easily updatable by the Spark team via Strapi.

• A growing user base building real-world climate habits - one donut at a time.

Carbon Donut isn’t just a footprint calculator. It’s a mindset shift — made possible through thoughtful tech and collaborative product thinking.
